Ok, thanks Jack.  I'm just pretty frustrated by this feature which seems to
have inaccessability. We deal with many graphics, and it seemms as if there
should be something which denotes the balloon?  If so, we could label it.
Why can't we get to it with the JAWS cursor and then use the mouse buttons
on the numeric data pad to click it?  As long as these things have been out
there, it seems as if someone at FS would have developed a method of
identifying these and allowing a blind user to access them, even if it was
some sort of JAWS combination keystroke which accomplished accessing a popup
balloon.
